It reads as if it starts next year, ie, as if BBC have sold out of their contract before its 2013 expiry. I too will not pay for Sky so I too will stop watching.

No, it'll be shitter because it'll have adverts, it won't have the BBC team, which at the moment is pretty good, AND you'll have to fooking pay for it AND stick a dish on your house.

makes no difference to me, i don't watch it anyway. Even if I did, And even though I already have the dish, I certainly wouldn't go out of my way to pay extra

I was actually getting interested again in F1, now that Pirelli are making the tyres last longer and pitstop undercuts were becoming less achievable/relevant.

From what ive heard bbc are not getting the viewing figures they need from F1 to warrent the cost, thats why they are not keeping it, and just like wrc it will be something i used to watch. one day boost will be mine!

Very possible - but they chose to hire some very expensive presenters, and a large crew to follow them around.... The major cost should be to the company (can't remember their name) that actually does the track filming for all the TV companies but BBC chose to add a lot of extra costs of their own.

I can't see how they can do this. The concord agreement specifically says that it must be free to air. I wonder if there is a loophole by showing highlights?

I can't see the teams and sponsors being happy with this so I doubt that this will be the last we hear about it. How I understand it f1 is based on advertising surely with sky covering it it will produce less viewers as in my experience mototsport fans tend not to be into football ect so won't have sky sports... and imo although I enjoy watching it its not so good I want to pay extra each month to see it. If the BBC cant pull the figures needed with their very good coverage how to sky expect to do it? Bernie needs a poke in the fucking eye... wanker |

There are some strong opinions about this obviously. I have enjoyed the BBC coverage and watch it more often than I did on ITV. The way I read it was that the BBC will still be showing half the races live so it is not totally lost. I have sky and find their sports coverage very good so I am not too bothered, although I expect I will still watch the races the BBC show to avoid the adverts. I will however, change my opinion if sky start showing adverts in the middle of the race like ITV used to. I can not understand how that is acceptable, if they did it with a football match there would be uproar, why should F1 be different? |

Apparently the viewing figures are at a 10 year high. Alot more of my mates seem to be watching it these days, even people who aren't necessarily into motorsport as it's entertaining. |
